Mission 5: Clear Hard ModeFrom the beginning - flip the hourglass - then rush to the left door - continue until you reach the room with the flashing floor - dig into the painting on the right. After getting rid of the bad guys - flip the hourglass and go left - to the platform that came out and punch the steel boxes. Inside is another hourglass - it opens the door in the center of the floor - so flip it and dig in the floor beneath the door to get the Key.Now - get out of that room and go to the Pyramid Core - go to where the Ancient Shrine is that you used to get to the Lost Chao - activate it with the Mystic Melody and get in the water. Make it through the doors and as soon as you pass the ghost room - go straight to the back of the next room - don't go up just yet. Go behind the altar at the back and grab the Key.Now - you can go up to the Lost Chao room - but before you do - throw the Switch on the ceiling just before the upward hole - it prevents a weight from trapping you inside the next room. Once in the room - flip the hourglass - then go back in the water. The hourglass opens the floor in that small room in the second step - under the floor is the final Key.

Where it is: At the beginning of the level, glide forward on to the circular platform in front. Look to the right and you should see a meteorite sitting there. Gently hit it forwards and you should see 2 doors ahead of you. Slam the meteorite in to the first door and the emerald will be sitting inside.

Where it is: Look forward near the beginning of the level you should see a large structure you can climb. It's the same structure where you fought Rouge/Knuckles in earlier battles. It's the structure of beams in the very center of the stage. Glide over to it and climb up to the top. Stand on the corner and look around on the other 3 corners. Find the one with the spring and take it up. Glide at your peak on to the highest platform you can glide to. This platform should have a spring and 3 boxes and a long ledge. Head over to the long ledge and inch over on it. It has a free life on it so you know you are on the right ledge. Put on your sunglasses and run to the spring at the end to be sprung up in to the air. At the peak of your spring, glide to be at the perfect height to get this emerald piece.

Where it is: Alright, if you know how to get to the very top of the level do it. If not, here is a path to get there. First, glide forward to the structure with lots of bars. Its the same structure as where you fought Rouge/Knuckles. Anyways, climb up to the top and stand on one of the corners at the top. You should see 3 other corners and one should have a spring. Hit the one with the spring to fly up to another platform. This platform should have 3 boxes, a ledge, and a free life. It's the same one as where you found the second emerald. Take the spring up and glide over to the blue type structures. Fly over to the side of the deep platform and climb up on top. There should be a rocket that will take you up to the ARK ship! Just what you need! Either cling on to the wall and climb around or land on the platform and glide. Either way, glide around the bottom platforms until you find the one with the flying type enemy. Stand on here and put on your sunglasses to find another spring. Walk over to it and glide at the peak to find this emerald piece!
